INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2.  Using a Basecoat Brush, apply 1 good coat of SS-138 Flat Black to the piece. Allow to dry!
  3. Shake and stir MM-102 Copper Metallic, place some on a piece of aluminum foil, apply 1 coat to the Sun Face. Allow to dry!
  4. Apply a second coat of MM-102 Copper Metallic. While still wet, spritz with MM-202 Green Patina. Allow to dry!
  5. Shake and stir MM-106 Steel Metallic, place some on a piece of aluminum foil, apply 1 coat to the Sun Face. Allow to dry!
  6. Apply a second coat of MM-106 Steel Metallic. While still wet, spritz with MM-305 Rapid Rust. It will not hurt t get it on the Copper area. Allow to dry!
  7. In about 20 minutes to an hour you should see come action going on each color.
  8. Using the basecoat brush, drybrush some of the MM-102 Copper Metallic back onto the sun face. This will tone down the patina and will patina from under the copper.
  9. Using the basecoat brush, apply 2 coats of MM-502 Matt Sealer to the piece. This will also spot the patina & rust action. You can opt to not seal and it will continue to patina & rust.
  10. If you would like more copper to the sun face, you can dry bush again with MM-102 Copper Metallic after it has been sealed.
